The 1966 nonfiction book that made the Betty and Barney Hill abduction a household story — arguably the shortest bridge between pop culture and the real case file.
This is not a novel but a work of reportage. Journalist John G. Fuller reconstructs what happened to Betty and Barney Hill, a New Hampshire couple who, driving home late one night in September 1961, said a luminous disc shadowed their car — after which two hours simply went missing. Working from the hypnosis sessions of psychiatrist Dr. Benjamin Simon, Fuller retraces their account of being taken aboard the object and physically examined by unfamiliar beings[1]. The subtitle states the hook outright: *Two Lost Hours "Aboard a Flying Saucer."* For the first time, a UFO stopped being a distant light and became an intimate fear — of being taken.
